only one item for Friday and it is the Story Line at the Portage Lake Library....    come get excited about doing a little write up about one of your ancestors!
 
Story Line- Mary Wright at PLDL 2pm this Friday (May 13th)
Dear Homeschooling Families,
 
Mary Wright, Artistic Director for The Story Line Project, will be at the Portage Lake District Library during the afternoon of Friday, May 13, from 2:00 - 3:00 p.m. to talk with you about this amazing community art project that pays tribute to your ancestors in a lasting and memorable way.
 
I am re-sending information to you about The Story Line Project in these attachments as a reminder of the details for this opportunity to participate in a major cultural event and artistic project.
 
I am also including details about Mary's presentation that is especially for you on Friday in the attachment titled The Story Line Project.doc.
 
Mary especially wants homeschooling families to participate in this project and extends a personal invitiation to each of you. You have told me in the past that Friday afternoons are the best time for you to attend a library event. We are hoping that this is still the case and that we will see many of you on Friday.
 
Those of you who want to participate will have free, easy access to the equipment needed to make these flags. All fabric, transfer paper, and use of the hot press will be provided free. We can set this all up in the community room of the library where you can come to work on your project.
 
This is a perfect opportunity for your children to learn about genealogy, do research on something that is significant and meaningful, study history from a personal point of view, learn a new form of art, see their work displayed in the community, on television, and in a documentary film, have their work archived at the Keweenaw National Historical Park for preservation, attend a professional opera performance for free, and whew... what could be more enriching?
 
I hope to see you Friday at 2:00.
